things...thoughts...

Hey gals! I am using the NEW uploader feature on here and DO NOT LIKE it! Its making my pics align all weird! Anyone else experiencing this?

I wanted to show off some more Fall/Halloween decor that I have put out around the house! The 1st pic on the top of the pumpkin is something my oldest son made me in Kdg.; its a roll of toilet paper wrapped in fabric, lol! Its so cute though and one of my fave things!

See this cute kissy pilgrim couple below? Found them at TJ MAXX for $1.99; just need a candle to go with it. A lot of my Halloween stuff came from my grandma's house after she passed away; so I am lucky to have a lot of special things that are meaningful to me!

Here is a SNEAK PEEK of my Fall Swap going to my pal AMY! I had SO much fun making and picking things out for her; she and I have similiar tastes!

I ask that you say a little prayer today... for my Dad. He recently was diagnosed with cancer, oral cancer on his tongue. He is going to Indy today for a consultation with the surgeon/dr. that will be taking care of him. I guess he will have to have almost half of his tongue removed, and they will be using skin graphs from his thigh to "rebuild" the area of the tongue that has to be removed. I PRAY that he will be Cancer free after this surgery and will be fine!! This is very scary for me; my dad and I just recently in the past few years have become close once again and I hate to see him have to go through this. Thanks for your thoughts!

Hugs,

Scrapbook Sunday: My PLUMP-kin!!

Hi! Welcome to Scrapbook Sunday; where you can show off a fave scrapbook layout or two, some of your fave scrapbooking tools, etc. If you'd like to participate, just grab the above button and leave me a comment that you are joining in, along with the link to your SS post!

Today I am showing off some Halloween pages from my lil' ones first album... his 1st Halloween!

Here is the lil PLUMPkin in some pj's that were bought for him to wear on his first Halloween but we had to put them on him a couple months prior cause they were too small at Halloween! lol

For the layout below, I used some fun Halloween paper that came from Target's $1 section; I just picked up another 2 packs of this years papers the other day from Target! I love the colors/designs of their papers; just wish they were a little bit thicker paper.



For the layour below, I punched out small circles to use as my title; then added letter stickers to those circles. Remember, how important it is to JOURNAL on your Scrapbook pages; the memories behind those photos of yours are SOOOO important!



Please visit my friend HOLLY and VICKIE  and KATIE to see their SS posts!

MWW: Fall Family Fun!

Welcome to MWW!

I am revisted pics of my fave fall family thing that we do together in our household...

the Pumpkin Patch/Farm!!

Looking at these pics from a year ago makes me very sentimental because my baby boy was barely hairy last fall and was only 1:( Now he is SO big; almost 2 1/2; over 3 feet tall and weighs 40 lbs. AND he needs a haircut at least once a month!! My oldest son is 8 now... has gained some weight in the past year, lost some teeth and is in 2nd grade! Then there's me... 20 lbs lighter with waaaay longer hair! Hubby to be hasn't changed- still good looking, a smart a*s too but actually he has lost about 15 lbs too over the past year!

Look at my lil pee-wee!

He couldn't pick up pumpkins last year!

This year he probably will throw one at his big bro! lol

Big bro is so much older looking now than in this pick and has a bit of a jack-o-lantern smile going on now!!

Wonder how they will measure up this fall?

I will have to take another shot of these 3 when we visit the Pumpkin Patch in a couple weeks to compare this year to last year!

Thanks for visiting me today!

i'm still breathing!

Hey chicks! I will be posting for MWW later today; nap time I hope!

My lil Gage is starting to feel better!!

I started reading New Moon last night and have to FORCE myself to put the da*n book down and do things like... SHOWER!! Isn't that terrible?? lol I figure... at least I am READING A BOOK... I haven't done that in years!! But the BAD part... I am neglecting reading my text book for my class tonite; oops! Think the prof would understand that my love for Edward Cullen is far greater than the love for her Scientific Inquiry course??



Off to change a stinky diaper then a nice cool fall morning walk!!

(*Love the details don't ya?? hehehe)



Love you all,

Noelle ♥

♥ LOVE ♥

Oh! Lord have mercy on me for being in love with another man...

Ahhhh, yes... "Edward Cullen" from Twilight and the upcoming New Moon movie!

I recently watched Twilight for the first time and am in LOVE with that movie!

I know, I know... the books are SO much better; everyone keeps telling me that:)

I am running to the library today to get them!

Did you see the MTV VMA's last night and saw the movie trailer for NEW MOON?

Wow, that took my breath away!

This movie seems SO action packed; I CANNOT wait to see it Nov. 20th!

Forget honeymoon, I am goin' to the movies, lol!

I have other things to blog about, but this is my OBSESSION that I had to share with you!

Have a great day!
Noelle ♥
